Is there a limit to # of sidebars to include?
-
Hi,
I’m working on building my own wordpress theme (learning as I go), and the person I’m building for would benefit from a highly widgetized home page for easy editing.
I have been creating my own individual sidebars to display on the home page, and it’s was going well, until I added a sixth sidebar this morning. It shows up in my dashboard and I can add a widget to it, but it doesn’t display on my home page.
I am confused because I have used the exact same formats/methods as with the first 5. I’ve checked for typos and errors, and I can’t find any. I have to wonder if I’ve reached some kind of limit with my sidebars. Anyone know if this is a possibility?
My methods for adding the sidebars have been as follows (please note that the sidebar that doesn’t work is the final one, music_sidebar.php):
home.php
<?php if (is_page('Home')) : ?>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/tourdates_sidebar.php"); ?>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/twitter_sidebar.php"); ?>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/promo_sidebar.php"); ?>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/video_sidebar.php"); ?>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/mailinglist_sidebar.php"); ?>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/music_sidebar.php"); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>functions.php
if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )
register_sidebars(1, array('name'=>'Tour Dates'));if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )
register_sidebars(1, array('name'=>'Twitter'));if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )
register_sidebars(1, array('name'=>'Promotional Slider'));if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )
register_sidebars(1, array('name'=>'Video'));if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )
register_sidebars(1, array('name'=>'Mailing List'));if ( function_exists('register_sidebars') )
register_sidebars(1, array('name'=>'Music Player'));music_sidebar.php
<div id="music_sidebar">
<?php if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar(6) ) : else : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
